So I have had a ridiculous amount of fun this last week plushifying art and throwing my usual crafting rules out the window as I did so*, and I think I want to make plushifying art a more regular thing? I'm not sure how best to do that, though. Should I make a post that's like "reblog this if you want your art turned into plushies", or "reblog this with links to art you want turned into plushies" or suggest a tag that people can add to art they want plushified, and then I go through the tag when I want to make some plushies? *no paper patterns, just drawing directly on the fabric so each plushie is one of a kind

WHY DO NONE OF THE ACOTAR FAE HAVE HOBBIES EXCEPT THE ARCHERON SISTERS WHO ARE 19-25 YEARS OLD??? What have they all been doing for the last 500 years?? None of them have any real skills besides creative murder even though they had 450 years of peace between the first War and Amarantha’s reign.
Why does it not bother them that their mates have experienced less than 5% of their lifetimes and why do they not want their mates to live a little before settling down?
Why do they learn nothing from history that they literally lived? Why do none of them have a lick of emotional maturity or have any thoughts about the meaning of their lives or MEANINGFULLY improving the lives of others? I’m not talking about “let’s pass a law and let Illyrians still clip female wings as long as they aren’t obvious about it” I’m talking about a cultural overhaul where females and wild fae are valued and given justice *before* your nineteen-year-old recently-human mate expresses distaste for the way they are treated.
WHAT WERE THEY DOING FOR 450 YEARS
At least Tamlin plays the fiddle and Lucien studied/traveled I guess

One thing I don't see lots of folks talking about here re: so-called "AI" tools, possibly because I see far fewer tech-circles posting on this site, is the impending Catch-22 of tech or tech-adjacent jobs utilizing AI or LLM models. I think a lot of folks are caught up in the art-theft, the nonsense generation, and both of those are TRUE PROBLEMS THAT SUCK -- they also don't seem to know that LLM tools are actually, I think, soon going to be a near-requirement for jobs that have any element of coding or are tech-adjacent.
I know for a fact the MOST-senior, best programmer on my team is using AI to write his scripts. Why? Because it's fast. The mistakes it makes, according to him, tend to be easy and quick fixes, or made up method calls, and that's simple to tweak. There are anecdotes on reddit and Bluesky about scripts or programs that would normally take two weeks for a person to perfect being hashed out in a day using AssGPT or BroPilot. I believe it, I've seen it.
If we apply that more widely - this is what a lot of tech workers are going to be doing, ARE doing, right now. I am significantly concerned about the future of these jobs, or say, if you have moral-takes with AI or LLM tools. I strongly suspect, due to productivity gains, soon "not using them" isn't going to be an acceptable option to managers-that-be - this isn't for things like "Ooooh well you should just go learn new skills," it's that the market saturation will require one of your skills to be using LLM/AI coding-tools.
People can't learn new skills nearly as quickly as LLM's have started spitting out code that is almost entirely correct. It's just not going to happen - we need practice and repetition, and AI-adjacent programs just... don't. I can also say with confidence, the only reason we haven't seen it at wide-adoption within companies yet is due to concerns about proprietary secret-leaks. That's it. That's the thread that is currently separating LLM-use as a requirement vs a sanctioned-but-nothing-too-specific-in-the-machine activity.
I know the current hotness is that AI-tools are overrated, but from what I'm seeing in tech-world, I just don't think that's entirely true. I strongly suspect we're about to see "productivity-gains" in some of these circles the likes of which we haven't seen since rapid proliferation of the personal computer - and it's going to be use-tools or get-lost, and in the world of Capitalism you are only as good as your capacity for productivity (and, people using LLM's can spike their productivity to save literal days, weeks of time for certain given tasks) - and as someone with a career in this field, I'm not entirely sure what to do with that.

wait off topic if I change Cinder's semblance for my rwby canon-adjacent au.... would this be controversial editing to warn people that the tags are novel length but that i love them and also @graythegreyt pls read them when u have a chance
#wick lore#i have asked myself this question with almost every character but for cinder i was thinking abt her dustweave (?) clothing#dustweave. dust infused. something like that#her v1 outfit that has the design on the sleeves that lights up when she sends out fire. that's her using fire dust that's in the cloth#but as far as i know this is a detail that literally never comes up again like we never see anyone else with clothing like this#so i asked myself. what if that was her semblance instead. that she had the ability to sew dust into cloth#how hard would it be for the girl modelled after cinderella to know that her semblance required her to do domestic labor to be used#thus explaining why it doesn't show up in later volumes because once she gets the maiden powers she thinks she doesn't need it#idk i think making her semblance be 'she can heat stuff up' and thus making her semblance indistinguishable from maiden powers#for the entirety of the series. is a bit of a waste. bc semblances say a lot about characters right#i know there's a point to be made about like. it manifested as that at that time because cinder has always been angry etc etc#but wouldn't it hurt from a different narrative angle. to have her semblance be dustweaving. when she doesn't have any money#no money to buy dust with but a semblance that makes her a skilled and incredibly rare craftsperson but can she bear to sell her skills#when they've been used against her for so long? when all she's known is hard work and grit and sweat? when it's probably dangerous?#anyway i think im about to hit the limit for tags but. lmfao. the possibilities!!! also the association between handsewing and the HOME!#something she's always wanted but never had. a safe place to sit by a fire that she doesn't have to tend and do her work...#also like the possible tension with mercury bc she's wishing her semblance was more offensive + merc's like BE GRATEFUL YOU HAVE ONE???#i headcanon that mercury has a semblance though. that he has silver eyes and his dad took those from him by making him hate the world#...anyway#goodnight

Oh so you're an art thief. Stealing other people's art and idea using ai and claiming it as your own. Gross, unfollowed and blocked. Maybe do some research into ai art and how harmful it is.
since this person blocked me they won't hear my response, but I wanted to post this in case the point of my previous post wasn't clear:
I want to talk about ways to improve and ethically use AI image algorithms specifically because of how much research I've done on how harmful they are.
as a professional artist, I'm among the group of people at direct risk of losing my livelihood to artificial intelligence.
however, as someone who's also fully entrenched in the industry of new technologies and who has had an interest in them for many years, I know that we invent things first and then ask the ethical questions about them later.
I'm in a unique position where I'm often in public speaking situations about the confluence of art and technology, and I want to use my voice to try and have some say in how we can make things like VR, AR, and AI more ethical and safe for everyone.
I would never take an AI generated image and claim it as my own - this is part of the reason why I'm being upfront about the way I'm experimenting with using them for artistic reference and as part of my process.
I believe that technology isn't inherently good or bad, and that it's up to us to find positive ways to use it. I want to be part of the search for those positive ways.

I don't know if "unskilled labor" is a real job category over in the US but I keep seeing the tags "no such thing as unskilled labor" on videos of road workers doing something cool, machine operators, or just anyone in high vis honestly. And it's been driving me nuts for some reason maybe because it sounds so condescending. And american

I'm an argumentative bastard just like both my parents but I try not to get into fights too much because a lot of arguments just turn into a waste of time but fuck man. It's really hard sometimes.
